This week we’re discussing the kidnapping and murder of Junko Furuta, otherwise known as the concrete-encased high school girl murder. I know, and yes, it’s as gruesome as it sounds.
From what it sounds like, this girl was murdered and buried in concrete, maybe even buried alive… but trust me, the truth was far, far worse.
The brutality of the crime, and the lack of freedom of information within Japan meant that the newspapers deliberately did not report the details. It was not until the internet became common place that this murder became better known.
This has quite possibly been the most interesting case we’ve done, but just a little listening discretion, it is gory, horrific and not for the faint hearted. We all love true crime and murder here at Everything with the Girls. But if it gets too much then we totally understand if you decide to sit this one out.
